I've not posted in ages, because I've been out and about and mostly working with physical media when I do get a chance to draw. I've mostly been trying to quickly draw gestures of people I see out and about and studying Andrew Loomis' "Figure Drawing for All It's Worth". Gotta drill proportions into my head one way or another I suppose. I also draw a certain someone with a knack for falling asleep in the nude when I'm around, but I don't think I'm allowed to post those. :( I don't have a scanner, so camera shots it'll have to be.

London is Burning
Is it bad that the main thing I think when I see images of the riots going on in London is "oh man I gotta draw me some of that"?

Studies and Opencanvas
So I've been reading "On Drawing Trees and Nature." by James Duffield Harding since I finished the mammoth Dance With Dragons (good book, should only take ten years to find out what happens next). And basically, the first four chapters are a "why don't you study form some more huh" guilt trip. So I caved and started looking for nice sculptures to study. This is the first I've done, the Apollo Belvedere.
And a random hand study I did the other day...
And a quick doodle I did to test out how OpenCanvas works. I know, I know. I didn't even use reference, I'm a bad person.

Progress Chart
I always find these fascinating to look at so I went ahead and made my own. If you want to make your own, the template is just a search away on DeviantArt. The results are really interesting and motivating to see.

New Background and Some Wip
"Right, I need to get some drawing done and update the blog for once". I then doodled a silly cartoon self portrait and spent half an hour trying to make it work as a background on here. That counts, right? Most of the decent stuff I have right now is very wip, because I start them and then I get distracted with other ideas. So I'll just post the only thing I have even mildly worth posting yet.
This is a wip, copied from issue 10 of X23 (Female Wolverine, pretty much). I thought I'd try to learn from some artwork I admire. The original image was by Sana Takeda.
